It’s an odd world we live in where we simultaneously scream at each other from behind computer screens and anonymous social media accounts while also grasping for empathy and compassion towards others, whether they be close to us or not. The artists in this exhibition use their work to examine all aspects of human connection, our thoughts and feelings toward one another within families, romantic relationships, social groups, cultural communities and even within our own internal worlds. My hope is that this visual exploration of our connections can help us find deeper ways to understand and reach out to one another.
